Restore missing desktop icons in Windows XP or Windows 7
February 5th, 2010I noticed that all my desktop icons were gone. I thought it was only because my computer was hanging, so I restarted it. After the restart there were still no icons.

Fix PNG images with transparency in older Windows Internet Explorer versions

Tip: Most of us are probably using the newer versions of Internet Explorer. I suggest that you download and use the IE Tester. It’s a web browser that lets you see how web pages render in different versions of IE – 5.5, 6, 7, and 8.
I assume that as you read this, you are using Internet Explorer version 5.5, or the version 5.5 tab on the IE Tester.
